Arch
Linux是一份独立开发的、为i686优化的Linux发行,它面向高级Linux用户。它使用自行开发的包管理器pacman来为最新的应用软件提供
更新升级,并进行完整的依赖性维护。Arch可以从光盘镜像或者从FTP服务器安装,它以一份连续演化的、动态的系统形式运作。缺省的安装提供一份坚实的
基础,用户可再进行定制安装。此外,Arch Build System(ABS)能支持简便创建新软件包,修改原先软件包的配置,以及通过Arch
Linux User Repository来将这些软件包与其他人共享。 Tobias Powalowski has announced the release of Arch Linux 0.8: "It's done - final 0.8 Voodoo ISOs for i686 and x86_64 are ready.
